Southeast Utterly Dominates Nation

Looking at all BCS title games since they began following the 1998 season, the Southeastern region is clearly in total domination of the country in college football. With a 9-4 cumulative record for Southeast-based teams playing in the title game, the proof is in the pudding. The North region is 1-2 in title games (all Ohio State). The Northwest (Oregon) and Midwest (Nebraska) regions are both 0-1. The Southwest region (from the state of Texas to California) has easily the second most title game appearances with eight, but is only 3-5, with Oklahoma going 1-3. Of note: FSU was 1-2 for the Southeast region back at the turn of the century, with the other two losses by Miami and VaTech. The strength of the Southeast as a region is the SEC, 7-0 with five consecutive BCS national titles.
